Went to Portofino's for lunch with a few coworkers and we all enjoyed our meals and experience!
We got there at about 11:45 and I'm glad we did, because as we were leaving there was a line out the door... That must say something for this restaurant!
The sever was really quick to get our drink order and to take our meal order once she brought our drinks. She told us about three lunch specials that all sounded delicious but I decided to order off the menu. I ordered a side salad to start out with Witt he house dressing and the shrimp scampi for my meal. One of my coworkers ordered the chicken and vegetable lasagne that was one of the lunch specials and my other co- worker ordered the linguine pasta with arrabbiata sauce.
Our side salads were delicious and very fresh! I loved that they put green olives on the salad...different but good (if you like olives)! The house dressing is really good and tastes even better with the warm bread they bring with your meal!
The shrimp scampi was probably some of the best I've ever had! I chose the linguine as my pasta choice and it was perfectly al dente! The shrimp were huge and fresh! I could only eat half my meal and it was still good the next day reheated! My coworker offered me a bite of his lasagna...now I see what everyone was talking about in the previous reviews! Amazing! It must be on special a lot and I could see why! My other coworker enjoyed his dish as well (he ate it too fast for me to swipe a bite)!
All in all I love Portofino's and can't wait to go back again!!
